<p><a class="link" href="GstDynamicTypeFactory.html" title="GstDynamicTypeFactory"><span class="type">GstDynamicTypeFactory</span></a> is used to represent a type that can be
automatically loaded the first time it is used. For example,
a non-standard type for use in caps fields.</p>
<p>In general, applications and plugins don't need to use the factory
beyond registering the type in a plugin init function. Once that is
done, the type is stored in the registry, and ready as soon as the
registry is loaded.</p>
